Monarch Water can be enjoyed freely at all times and under all conditions, and is particularly delicious with a meal. It can also help cleanse your palate between wine, spirit, cheese, or chocolate tastings. Best served cold without ice. Monarch water is collected by gravity alone via natural caves at 3,000 feet on Mount Shasta. From carbon dating, we know the water is between 100 years and 10,000 years old, and from the oxygen isotopes and we know that the water comes from the 7,000 foot snow and glacier level. Over these 100+ years, the water is naturally filtered through layers of granite, gem infused rock, gold and green jade, resulting in naturally occurring minerals and trace elements with no added artificial nutrients and a balanced pH of 7.55. Add a few drops to your favorite glass of scotch to see the aromatics of the spirit open up beautifully! Making cold brew or pour over coffee at home? Take it up a notch with amazing texture and purity of flavor that Monarch Still can provide.
